Recycling Old Appliances

You've purchased a new energy-efficient appliance and you're ready to start saving money on your electricity bill, but what do you do with your old appliance? Recycle it!

When you recycle an old inefficient appliance you permanently remove it from the electric grid, saving energy and avoiding harmful greenhouse gas emissions. You also keep appliance components and harmful toxins out of our landfills and make it possible to turn old materials into new ENERGY STAR® qualified appliances. And recycling is easy. Many recyclers will pick-up appliances and incentive programs may be available that pay you to recycle.
